According to CNBC, South Korean President Lee Jae Myung said a U.S.-North Korea summit could bring peace and urged renewed dialogue between Washington and Pyongyang. Speaking at the United Nations General Assembly in New York, Lee called President Donald Trump's push for a meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un a hard-won opportunity for change and said Seoul wants to lay the groundwork for talks aimed at ending the war on the Korean Peninsula and moving toward a peace regime. Trump has said he plans to meet Kim later this year, though it was not clear whether any meeting was actually planned. Lee also said Seoul aims to halt further advances in North Korea's nuclear and missile capabilities, then reduce those capabilities in the medium term before moving toward a Korean Peninsula free of nuclear weapons over the long term. In a later summit with Trump on the sidelines of the UNGA, Lee reportedly discussed strategic investment projects between the two countries, including South Korea's $350 billion commitment to invest in the U.S. under last year's trade deal. National security adviser Wi Sung-lac said the two leaders also vowed to deepen cooperation in nuclear submarine fuel, reprocessing, shipbuilding collaboration and wartime operational control transition.
